Thakkar H. K., Chowdhury S. R., Bhoi A. K., Barsocchi P.

Healthcare  Wearable technologies 

Wearable technology is an emerging field of innovation that includes designing a portable device worn by people. Wearable devices essentially help monitor vital information related to human health. Wearable devices are more or less designed to capture the image and signal data and transfer it to cloud storage via smartphone-enabled wireless technology to monitor vital health parameters. From healthcare to finance wearables, devices have stepped their foot in every domain. Due to the small size of a wearable device, it has become very comfortable for people to use them anywhere, let it be for jogging or while working.
